Yeah I could do that, but at the same time this car will keep going forever after a bit of TLC, so I might as well do it right the first time.

That's so unlike me, I'm always about the quick fix, just get it good enough.... what the f**k's going on!!

too much laser love

Mangs. Just checking in from an Irish pub with free wi fi in Dubrovnik.

Cars of interest spotted in Europe so far:

one 180sx in Rome, but I think it may have been it's American cousin the 240sx.

And one four door 35 with infinity badges.

And lots of vw's

not when it comes to Fords ;)

Fords are awesome ;)

I am working on it. Beers here are $2 for pints.

Almost as good as hong kong, $5 for a four pack, sold at 7eleven and petrol stations

having fun bigfella?

Having fun, but as for hot beer wenches, can't quite give them the attention they deserve as my wife is with me at almost all times.

But as a general rule, Croatia seems to be filled with stunners.

Not like Serbia.....

I got this message from a dude on Boostcruising about a VG30DETT:

Hey mate i found out about the motor for you, it comes with everthing, turbo's ect. except no wiring harnes. It has dropped pressuse from one of the cyclinders but he dosen't know which one???? Apart from that he said it runs great. He said the price is $600 Neg.

What do you think?

Agree on the no. f**k the VG. Oh and as I said to John last night. f**k YOU GUYS. Burn Notice is awesome and I ended up going to bed at 2am last night because I couldnt stop watching them. Now I've got to stay in work and do my uni assignment because I know if I go home I'll never get anything done lol.

But Dan might know how to work some VG magic :blink:

Well, I question old mate's diagnostic technique.

He says:

It has dropped pressuse from one of the cyclinders but he dosen't know which one????

now by 'dropped pressure' I would assume that means no compression? But how he tells it has no compression in 1 cylinder without testing them I don't know, and if he'd tested them he'd know which one it is. If its actually got no compression on 1 cylinder, forget it, its f**ked.

IF he actually means "not firing" on 1 cylinder then it could be something simple causing no fuel or spark to that cylinder, in which case it would probably be a very easy fix.

I would suggest, if you have any intention on buying it, do a compression test on it first and if the cylinders aren't all in spec and fairly even, then stay far FAR away, it's not worth the hassle.

If you can get the VG for like $400 I'd say go for it, if a cylinder is f**ked rebuild it yourself :D

The laser's now rolling on some sweet nolathane bushes in the front ;) oh yeahhhh

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
